Album Notes
THREE A.D. is the third in a series of superlative volumes covering artists from the U.K. label Beyond in addition to
other new electronica luminaries such as Space Time Continuum (Jonah Sharp) and turntable fantasists Coldcut. Those
unfortunate few who have yet to acquire the luxurious debut from Higher Intelligence Agency can bathe in the glow of
that unit's "Skank" here. Or "Lighten Up!" via A Positive Life, which flaunts its Kraftwerkian
cyborg beats on a bed of Orbian translucence. Additional tracks by the highly distinctive Insanity Sect and The
Starseeds practically beg appropriate full-lengths, while the unique cut-and-paste antics of Coldcut's "Sign"
illustrate the revolutionary methods Black and More continue to exalt as they tweak future shock. Sample the previous
two A.D. compilations as well for further aural daytrippin'.
